Unwanted mail
Useful tips to stop unwanted mail.
Stop unwanted mail and reduce waste
The Mailing Preference Service (MPS) is a free service to enable customers to have their names and addresses removed from lists used by the direct mail industry.
Leave mailing lists by informing companies that you do not want to receive information about other services and not to pass your details on to other companies.
Other ways to reduce waste:
- write "Unsolicited Mail. Please return to sender" on unwanted items and put them back in the post
- try to reuse envelopes by sticking new labels over the address
- if you can, opt for emails rather than post e.g., bills and bank statements
- put a sign on your letter box saying that you do not want any junk mail or flyers
